vrtA
Zionist bodies to fire yordim
(emigrants from Israel) and
halt any action encouraging
yerida — have put Zionist
organizations and Jewish
leaders in the U.S. in an un-
easy position.
Zionist leaders claim that
the recommendations are
unrealistic, unattainable
and too severe. All said that
they do not intend to fire
any Israeli employees they
might have, pointing out
that such action is not only
"unfair" but a violation of
American law.
The recommendations by
the Knesset committee de-
fined yordim as Israelis who
have settled overseas per-
manently or who lived away
from Israel for more than
five years.
"The recommendations
are much too strong and too
harsh and will not solve the
problem of yordim," Char-
lotte Jacobson, chairman of
the World Zionist
Organization-American
Section, claimed. The com-
mittee's recommendations
called specifically on the
WZO not to employ yordim
in its educational institu-
tions.
Mrs. Jacobson said, in
that connection, that there
aren't any yordim in WZO
institutions and that the
teachers employed by her
organizations are shlikhim
(emissaries) from Israel.
She pointed out, however,
that Jewish communities
and Jewish centers across
the United States employ
Israelis as Hebrew teachers.
As to the recommendation
to fire yordhn, Mrs. Jacob-
son said that American
Jewish organizations are
bound by U.S. law that pro-
hibits discrimination in
employment on the basis of
race or national origin.
"And that means you can't
refuse to hire or fire a
yored," she said.
"Most of us feel," Mrs.
Jacobson stressed, "that in-
stead of talking of yordim
we should talk of yerida,"
and how to prevent it.
In its recommendations,
the committee asked the
United Jewish Appeal to
abolish immediately its "Is-
raeli Department," which
the recommendations said,
is active among Israelis liv-
ing in the United States.
"The UJA has no national
program or fund-raising
among yordim in the U.S.,"
a spokesman for the UJA
said, claiming that leaders
of the organization were
"astounded" to read that
they have an "Israeli De-
partment."
The UJA spokesman also
claimed that the organiza-
tion does not employ yor-
dim.The only Israelis work-
ing at the UJA, he said, are
security guards who are
students at American uni-
versities and are employed
at the UJA on a temporary
basis.
The Knesset committee's
recommendations were also
addressed to Israeli dip-
lomatic missions abroad.
Political Conflicts Can't Halt
Israel's Trade With Britain
By MAURICE
SAMUELSON
LONDON (JTA) — The
bittersweet political rela-
tions between Israel and
Britain are currently going
through one of their bitter
phases. But trade relations
between them rarely at-
tracted so much attention as
they did last month, proving
the durability of the Anglo-
Israeli connection.
About 200 Israeli com-
panies displayed their
wares at a three-day exhibi-
tion entitled "Industrial Is-
rael," showing the British
public that Israel is a highly
sophisticated technological
society.
The exhibition coincided
with the 30th anniversary
of the founding of the
British-Israeli Chamber of
Commerce. Trade between
the two countries is now
running at about $1.2 bil-
lion a year.
Inflation Costs
JERUSALEM (JNI) — A
bigger share of Israeli fam-
ily budgets goes toward
necessities today than in
1976, with a corresponding
decline in the amount spent
on discretionary items, the
Central Bureau of Statistics
reports.
Expenditure for essential
food products, electricity,
cooking gas, water, heating
fuel and health insurance is
up.
Even more significant,
perhaps, is the fact that
for the very first time the
balance of trade has
swung in favor of Israel.
She now sells Britian not
only fruit and vegetables
but a growing range of
industrial products, like
those that were on show
in London's West Centre
Hotel.
Among the products fea
tured were automotive
parts, security systems,
domestic appliances, air
conditioning, solar energy
equipment, medical equip-
ment, rubber, plastic and
metal cutting systems, bat-
teries, computers and many
more.
In seeking knowledg e ,
the first step is silence, the
second listening, the third
remembering, the fourth
practicing, and the fifth —
teaching others.
